We're about 45 days late getting things in the ground, but they're coming in nicely.

Nice!

Thanks! We're getting there.

Potatoes and onions are smaller than usual. I'd let them stay longer, but I think I'll try for a fall crop this year.

How do you deal with cucumber spiky bits? Rub them off? Leave em?

Yeah, I just rub them off when I pick pick them. I've been wearing gloves when working with the plant because it is a little spikey. I don't really have workers hands anymore.

I've got those IT hands these days... 😄

Lol yea I know what you mean. Mine get slightly better in the summer, but barely any armor at all.

Sometimes I have a whole day of outside work ahead of me I'll rub a bunch of dry dirt into my hands for a sort of shell - works pretty well

Haha that’s rad. Yeah I just give em a once over with my hands and knock em off. Plenty of callouses here 🤝✌️
